This dark amber lager captivates with its slightly sweet, caramel flavor, and resonates with nuances of red fruits; these are counterpoised by a pleasant bitterness in the aftertaste. Together, all of these elements produce a delightfully unique flavor.

500ml bottle from Beers of Europe: BB 13th May 2021. Poured into an old Wolnzacher Brauhaus 'Hopfenperle' glass tankard at home on 15th Jan 2021. Lovely clean and clear reddy brown body, beige topping. It's a semi-sweet malty brew with a caramel front to both the aroma and taste. My sweet tooth really liked it.

On tap at Weihenstephaner, pours a clear chestnut brown with a medium beige head. Aroma brings out toasted malt and light caramel malt. Flavour is similar, with toasted caramel, toasted nuts, and bready malt. Bready and caramely. Good stuff.

Bottle from Beers Of Europe. Pours a clear mahogany colour with a creamy medium sized off white head. Fairly lively carbonation with small bubbles. Nice lacing. Aroma is malty, dark fruits, cherries, berries, red currants, bread, brown sugar and a little bit of caramel. Taste is again malty, more dark fruit, berries, bread, caramel, a little nutty, fairly sweet and hardly any hop bitterness. Soft smooth mouthfeel. Very light carbonation on the palate. Thin to medium bodied. Good.

Bottle picked up from REWE, Zolling and consumed at home Attenkirchen, Monday 14th October 2019 in the company of Dad and Pauline. Pours conker brown, good clarity, with an off white head. Some brown sugar, soft mouthfeel, mid carbonation, a little nutty edge. Good and yet I am surprised that I have not had this before.

Malty biscuit aroma and flavor. Hint of caramel. Full bodied. Raisin. Hint of roasted malt. Well made dunkel that might be a bit cleaner in the aftertaste.
